Helping Rebuild Low Income Areas
Just last month, Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate announced its philanthropic partnership with Rebuilding Together, a nationally recognized nonprofit that provides assistance for those unable to care for their homes, as well as communities and neighborhoods in need.

The Dogwood Festival is the quintessential spring event, and one that shouldn’t be missed.
April 10-12, Piedmont Park, Midtown
Lemonade Days

Carnival rides, games, food trucks, arts & crafts, wine and beer, live music, and a classic car show round out the weekend.
